The dentist said I needed a root canal. I went to Dr Ron Carlson, for a second opinion. He said I just needed a "wrap", a king of tooth covering. Years later, my tooth is fine, without the damage, expense and systemic infection risks of root canal.

I unfortunately needed another root canal so I scheduled wth Dr. Fu again. As before he takes the time to explain the process, possible causes, and next step treatment in a way that very easy to understand. The procedure went so smooth, I think I've had more unbearable pedicures than this root canal. Sydney was great at explaining cost and payment process ahead of time. Validated parking. Good location, easy to find. Would recommend.

I had the best root canal experience possible at this office! The team was friendly from the time I walked into the door. Marissa was very efficient and helped ensure I was comfortable thoughout the procedure. Dr. Nogueira is very gentle and walked me through every step, explaining it as we went. The office itself is very clean, organized and has the most comfortable dental chairs. Highly recommend this office!!

OUTSTANDING CARE! Dr. Fu is a consummate professional and I knew I was in good hands the moment he began explaining my imaging. The practice is state of the art, spotless and the entire staff were a pleasure. My insurance costs were explained beforehand so no surprises. PLUS - Dr. Fu was able to accomplish the root canal while saving my expensive crown. If you're looking for endodontic care - look no further! This is world class!!!

Friendly, supportive, caring dentists and staff. They call the day before for appointment reminder. Easy access into the parking structure from both sides of the building, either S. Beretania or Young Street. Longs Pharmacy and coffee shop on ground floor.
